Naw! Richt getting fired by UGA when he did was a godsend for James. Mork checked all the boxes for James and this image obsessed BOT. It was an effortless copout to hire Richt. James never had to exert the rational thought required to make a quality hire. I supported Richt at first because I'm always going to give any coach a fair shot. I gave Richt every opportunity to earn and keep my support but it's clear as crystal now that he is in way over his head.
All jokes aside I am fairly convinced Richt has dementia or some other age related cognitive disorder. It's as plain as day. For this reason I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Richt decides to retire at the end of the year. He looks tired, beat down and utterly defeated. Make no mistake, things are only going to get worse in terms of pressure, fan hostility, bashing by the media and an overall atmosphere of toxicity. He's not going to want to go through that. I'm fairly confident that both sides can reach an agreement behind the scenes that would allow Richt to walk away and retire with his dignity somewhat intact. At this point it is the only scenario I can see that would be mutually beneficial.
